You'll notice the most annoying feature of this scheme is the little page numbers that the software draws OVER text on the very right hand side of a line where it considers a new page to start.

The number of times a certain page number will be repeated will usually be consistent, but when you're dealing with a string of pages that are light on text (say, conversation between characters without much narration), it'll take more pages to reach this stupid static number Adobe came up with.
Thank you for explaining that!!! Those little overlapping page numbers were annoying the hell out of me!
